I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself-Chapter 146 - 74: Blazing Flame’s Order, Troops Assemble!
In a secluded place in a valley in the northern part of the Blazing Flame Race Territory, the Blood Sea Guard Race Soldiers were stationed.
Deep in the valley lies a massive cave, filled with a strong scent of blood.
Inside the Copper Talisman Witch Array, the blood energy from Xiaoyang Corpses constantly swirled towards the center, and the scattered blood energy was directly absorbed by the people cultivating nearby.
Due to acquiring too many corpses, Shen Can had to take out the Witch Pouch to ensure the Xiaoyang Corpses would not rot due to the hot weather.
He carefully sensed the operation of the Copper Talisman Witch Array, his Divine Sense focused on the center where the blood energy vortex was forming.
Since obtaining this Witch Array, Shen Can understood that the Sacrificial Master had left some tricks behind in the array.
In other words, when Blazing Flame obtained the Blood Pill, some of the blood energy was absorbed by the Sacrificial Master behind the scenes.
Allowing him to act like a rat in the background was intended to make him share some of the resentment from the Xiaoyang Race.
Currently, the situation of the tribal martial artists and the time they began the ritual of refining the Xiaoyang Blood Pill is different once again.
Especially those who followed Clan Leader Huo Chang to fight with Xiaoyang, the martial artists had heavy Evil Qi, their wills honed through successive battles.
In Shen Can’s opinion, after long-term engagements with the Xiaoyang, the Clan Soldiers could start taking a small amount of Xiaoyang Blood Pill for cultivation.
As he gently retracted his Divine Sense, he turned to look at his disciple Huo Tuan.
"Separate the martial artists and the ordinary Xiaoyang; use the Copper Talisman Witch Array to refine the martial artists, maintaining the quality of Blood Pill production, and refine ordinary Xiaoyang using the improved Little Witch Array."
"Also, burn this place with fire every ten days after refining."
"Disciple accepts the order," Huo Tuan spoke.
Continuously operating the Copper Talisman Witch Array, even alternating with Senior Sister Huo Long, Huo Tuan still felt fatigue.
However, every day in this environment was a test for his Divine Sense and will, and through constant refinement, his Divine Sense had gained some augmentation.
Leaving the cave, Shen Can headed back towards the Clan Land.
Using the Xiaoyang Race for cultivation was not considered a secret in Ji Land; any tribe adjacent to Xiaoyang engaged in it, albeit not on a large scale.
Everyone feared the backlash of Evil Qi and resentment.
In contrast, the Xiaoyang Race, who massively consumed the Human Race as food and for rituals, seemed to not fear the resentment of humans much.
In Shen Can’s view, the Xiaoyang Race, halfway between humans and Wild Beasts, probably didn’t fear human resentment for this reason.
Returning all the way to the Clan Land.
After distributing the spoils from the Xiaoyang Race as rewards, the clan once again ushered in a cultivation frenzy.
West Mountain Camp.
Over a thousand Clan Soldiers gathered at the martial training field, their shouts rumbling, and the force of their fists formed howling winds.
At the heights within the Clan Land, Huo Chang stood with hands behind his back, his black robe flapping in the wind.
His gaze was focused on the cultivating Clan Soldiers, his blood energy washing repeatedly in his body, his aura inexplicably merged with the gathered murderous aura of cultivation.
Upon returning, Shen Can immediately noticed Huo Chang standing in the high places.
At this moment, the Blazing Flame Clan Leader Huo Chang no longer bore a trace of the helplessness he had during the flood before the disaster had subsided, conversing with the Upper Huang Division martial artists.
Since receiving the inheritance from the Sacrificial Tripod Cauldron, Huo Chang had found his path to cultivation, his momentum increasing daily.
Shen Can did not interrupt Huo Chang’s solitary prominence and headed towards the Ancestral Temple.
"Roar!"
Inside the Ancestral Temple, a Tusked Wolf was securely bound, awaiting Shen Can’s arrival.
After showering and changing clothes, Shen Can gripped the Simurgh Blade and approached the Tusked Wolf.
Ear drawing Witch Talisman, mouth chanting Witchcraft.
Hand rises, blade falls, the Blood Vase catches.
[Sacrificial Master extracts six hundred ninety years of life of a Tier One Tusked Wolf]
Smearing the blood from the Blood Vase onto the Sacrificial Artifact, swiftly absorbed completely by the Sacrificial Artifact.
Then, he divided the Tusked Wolf, offering the sacrificial meat onto the altar.
"Give the Martial Hall kids a feast."
Shen Can didn’t bother with the subsequent matters, leaving them directly, as Witch apprentices arrived to take the beast blood and continue dividing the wolf meat.
[Life: 3210]
Returning to his residence, Shen Can checked the accumulated life.
Lately, occasionally, the settlements around would encounter Wild Beasts invading, and if they caught them alive, they would bring them to the Ancestral Temple.
This was a good phenomenon, indicating these settlers were increasingly adapting to their current lives, considering themselves Blazing Flame Clan People.
Shen Can planned to include some Divine Tablets into the Ancestral Temple from the settlers during the next Great Sacrifice to further deepen their sense of belonging to the Blazing Flame.
[Continue to deduce Kui Ox Divine Form, or head towards Kui Thunder Evergreen Technique, Kui Ox Fist fusion direction]
[You invest ten years of life... Moo Moo Moo...]
...
At present, the cultivation of the Kui Ox Technique in the clan was somewhat singular, Shen Can thought he could deduce matching Martial Arts Techniques, even martial arts Divine Techniques.
It’s not just Blazing Flame that’s lacking; the same was true across the Northern Lands divisions.
In contrast, the Ji Land divisions were vastly different; years of conquest against the Xiaoyang Race had led to martial artists there cultivating far more than those in the Northern Lands.
Hence, the Northern migration of the Xiaoyang Race might be a good thing for the Northern Lands; having a sense of crisis would promote Martial Arts Cultivation.
Huo Chang’s Flame Sun Blade inspired Shen Can greatly; with his Kui Ox Transformation, he could tailor-make a Kui Ox Saber Technique for himself.
A saber technique suitable for himself could explode with double the combat power.
Not many moves were necessary; a good technique could sweep the enemy with a single strike.
Of course, he could keep one move hidden as a backup.
Trivial matters of the clan didn’t reach Shen Can; his daily routine involved sweeping the Ancestral Temple, sacrificing to ancestors, cultivating, and strolling the Clan Land.
